Chop nuts and fruits into medium sized pieces, dredge with 1/4 cup of the flour. Do not use food processor, it will make fruit gummy. Cream butter and sugar together till light and fluffy. Add well beaten eggs and blend well. Sift remaining flour and baking powder together; fold into egg and butter mixture. Mix in vanilla and lemon extracts, then blend in fruit and nuts. Grease a 10" tube pan and line with parchment. Grease again. Pour batter into prepared pan, back at 250 for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Start cake in cold oven. Cool in pan on baking rack.
